Mrs. Erin O'Donnell

My name is Erin O’Donnell and I am thrilled to be a part of the Erdenheim community, teaching Fifth Grade. I believe that learning should be fun and school is about so much more than academics. It is a place where empathy, leadership skills and confidence is fostered.

I graduated from Saint Joseph's University with a degree in Elementary Education in 2004. I began my teaching career in the School District of Philadelphia, teaching First, Second and Third Grade while pursuing my Masters Degree in Reading at Gwynedd Mercy University, which I earned in 2010.

I then took some time off from the classroom to spend time with my two boys (at the time!). Using my Masters Degree in Reading, I worked part time for Upper Darby School District as a Title 1 Reading Interventionalist for two years before having my 3rd son. I became a long term substitute in 5th Grade in 2018 and quickly fell in love with Erdenheim and this grade.

I am so proud to say that I am a Springfield Township resident and reside in Flourtown with my husband, Kevin and three boys: Declan, Owen, and Gavin.
